Have you gone any distance on the Scrambler, done any trips, loaded up etc etc? Interested on how you found it.

No i haven't I'm afraid. just days out with minimal luggage or into London and back (to guildford) a few days a week. Its comfy though but a bit buzzy on the motorway. Definitely suited to the twists and not munching any miles.
 
I've got one too and I must confess I bought it more for its looks, than touring ability, took it with me to Cornwall for a week recently, in the back of my van. And then used it for riding round the narrow Cornish lanes, two up with the Mrs, for which it was ideal. Came back plastered in Cornish cow poo though, which reminds me, haven't cleaned it yet. The exhaust restricts having a pannier on the right side, so I'd say it would be restricted to carrying luggage solo, with a bag strapped across the seat.
 
There must be a lot of people on here who've used smaller naked bikes for holidays. I did 2 x 2 week holidays - UK to Montgenevre in 2002 on a CD200 Benly and the following year on a naked CB1300, and whilst the Benly was harder work, both were brilliant, to the point that I now wonder how much of a pussy I've become since owning 4 GS's?!
 
Used to ride all over Europe on a CB900 then a GPZ 900 before adventure bikes were invented!!

We used to make waterproof jerkins from bin bags teamed up with council issue waterproof trousers.... those were the days!
 
TEC released some all black versions of their shocks, I didn't really like the external reservoir silver ones, but these look great!! So would have been rude not too.



 
Fitted a new seat and currently trying out some flat tracker handlebars, which I'm not yet sold on.

 
Bloody photobucket.....


Anyway. Fitted some new Fatbar's which I really like and tidied up the exhaust with some wrap. I really like the direction this bike is going.

I was thinking to bring mine back from the USA next week but I'm going to keep it here at a friends so I can tour some more States on it. I have the JBL headlight removal kit as fitted to the Rumbler. In temped to buy another fir the UK but want to have a look at the T120 first.
Yours is looking great.
 
Thinking of selling this. No idea what its worth though. There are a lot of varied prices / specs of bikes for sale.

The only downside is its got 14k miles, but its got a full Triumph service history. It's a 2014 bike.

Mods:
Custom Arrow exhaust (comes with the silencer also)
High front fender mount
Motone headlight brackets
Motone indicators all around
Lay flat clocks bracket
Ignition relocation
Rectifier relocation
Radiator guard
Triumph engine guards
Pro Taper fat bars and Apico clamps
Bar end mirrors, with capping screws in original holes
Tuck N Roll seat
Motone tail tidy
Renthal chain/sprockets geared up with the speedo corrected
MAS engineering sprocket cover
Triumph Twin Power stage 1 tune
K&N filter and Airbox baffle removed
Tec steering damper
Tec black rear shocks
Tec rear footpeg caps


Any ideas anyone? £6-£7k region?

Sold my 2011 Scrambler with 9,000 miles, lots of extras/mods, arrow exhaust and a £1k 8ball paint job for £6,500 earlier in the year if that helps ;)
